Birmingham Medical School is one of the largest in the UK and offers a 5-year MBChB. Students train at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham and other West Midlands NHS hospitals. International applicants usually need A-levels or equivalent (Class 12 PCB), English proficiency (IELTS), the UCAT where the school requires it, and an interview. Indian students must also qualify NEET-UG to be eligible to practise in India.

UK medical degrees (MBBS / MBChB) usually take 5 years (6 with an intercalated degree or foundation year), followed by the 2-year UK Foundation Programme for graduates who work in the UK.

• Years 1–2: biomedical sciences with early clinical contact
• Years 3–5: clinical placements in Medicine, Surgery, Obstetrics & Gynaecology, Paediatrics, Psychiatry, General Practice and more
